Looking at names for our 2nd DD. My first DD’s name was a nod to my family and I would like our 2nd to be linked to my DH’s. From my DH side we like the GGM’s

1.Emily
2.Alice
3.Daisy

Hortense as my DH’s GM we would consider for 2nd name?
Rosie - My 3 year old DD has now thrown Rosie (Rose) in the mix, which has kind of grown on me since she said it and I would add to list but my DH hates it!! ( I think though she just likes it because of Peppa Pig and the Mrs Rabbit having twins episode) but she can’t get it out of her head now!

My husband is really set on Emily, but I prefer Alice or Daisy, so we have to compromise somehow.

Any thoughts on combinations? We have a one syllable last name.

Emily Alice
Emily Rose – ( I do love this one, but it keeps reminding me of that exorcism film)
Alice Rose
Alice Emily
Emily Hortense

@robin04031402

Sophie and Emily sound lovely!
Sophie and Daisy both have the e sound at the end which I don't think sounds good

How on Earth are you saying Emily if it doesn’t also have the e sound at the end 🤣🙄

@Jse266

I don’t like Alice.
I think Emily goes better with Sophie than Daisy does - but my Nana was Daisy & I love it.

Hortense shouldn't see the light of day ever again its really not nice

Emily Rose (Rosie as far as DD1 is concerned!!) 😊

It’ll give them A lovely bond

Alice Rose is classic and timeless

Emily Rose is gorgeous

I have an Emily Rose and love it, I think Emily and Sophie sound fab together. If i were to have another girl I would call her Alice or Lucy.

Sophie and Alice sound great together.
